Introducing the Course: Restorative Considerations for Gingival Surgery
Welcome to our comprehensive course on restorative considerations for gingival surgery, presented by the esteemed Dr. Frank Spear. In this course, Dr. Spear explores the vital factors that restorative doctors must consider to achieve ideal results when the esthetic plan involves surgically moving gingival tissue. By delving into restorative concerns, biologic width, margin placement, and methods for reducing post-treatment recession, you will gain invaluable insights into incorporating tissue management into esthetic treatment planning.
Lesson 1: Crown Lengthening – Gingivectomy or Osseous Surgery
In the first lesson, Dr. Spear addresses the restorative considerations associated with crown lengthening procedures. He discusses the decision-making process between gingivectomy and osseous surgery, providing valuable insights into when each approach is appropriate. By understanding the implications of these choices, you will be able to optimize your restorative outcomes while considering the overall esthetic goals.
Lesson 2: Crown Lengthening – Facial Only Osseous Surgery
Building upon the foundational knowledge from Lesson 1, the second lesson focuses on the technique of facial-only osseous surgery for crown lengthening. Dr. Spear shares his expertise in this method, highlighting its advantages, challenges, and the ideal scenarios where it can be effectively employed. You will gain a comprehensive understanding of this technique and its impact on restorative dentistry.
Lesson 3: Crown Lengthening – Circumferential Osseous Surgery
Continuing the exploration of crown lengthening techniques, the third lesson delves into circumferential osseous surgery. Dr. Spear provides insights into this approach, discussing its indications, limitations, and how it can be integrated into the restorative treatment plan. By understanding the nuances of circumferential osseous surgery, you will be better equipped to address complex cases involving gingival tissue repositioning.
Lesson 4: Crown Lengthening – Closed Flap Laser Surgery
In the final lesson, Dr. Spear discusses closed flap laser surgery as a technique for crown lengthening.
